CDO Soccer Club

Meet Our Coaching Staff

CDO Soccer Club takes great pride in educating local coaches and volunteers through in house initiatives, as well as the through regional and national licensing.

There is a big difference between a volunteer coach and a volunteer coach who engages in ongoing education, progresses their licensing and improves themselves as a coach to help our players improve.

This does not mean as parents you should expect a coach of 10 year olds to need an 'A' License to do so - we require volunteers to advance their licensing proportionately to the needs of the players. The USSF 'E' license for instance is suitable for coaches in ages 9-12, a USSF 'D' license for players aged 13-14 and so on, with their NCAA equivalents also taken into consideration.

In the past ten seasons we have licensed many coaches and assistants to a minimum of the NSCAA Advanced Regional Diploma level, and have coaches who have gone on to complete USSF and NSCAA residential courses.
